RH Line calls printed April 10, 2014

"To kind person that called in about making a donation to Mr. Becker for his trip to Austria, I am his daughter Kathy. You can call me at 970-217-9990."

Fracking Vote

"Hats off to city councilman Chauncey Taylor. Having earlier stuck with his usual political cohorts when they told our city clerk she didn't know how to do her job, their intent on telling the county clerk she didn't know how to do her job either proved too much for Mr. Taylor. Hooray for sanity and decency."

Colorado Eagles

"Now that we're coming to the end of another regular hockey season and loss of many fans, I hope the Colorado Eagles ownership group will take a serious look at the coaching staff and make the appropriate changes to move this team in a positive direction. We've got many great pieces to the puzzle, but seems we're being outpunched across the board. Please give the fans what they deserve, a fresh start next year."

Spring Cleaning

"It's spring and it seems like someone always has this great idea that they're going to dump their old couch or overstuffed chair on some county road somewhere. You know, those of us that live out in the county don't want your sofa and we don't want your chair, or puppies and kittens, either. So please take it to the landfill or have your trash company pick it up because it costs us a lot of money to remove it and it's ugly along the side of the road. Thanks for being considerate."

Fort Hood

"How is it possible on an army base no one had a gun to take this shooter down before he injured and killed so many people?"

Pay Inequality

"The Democrats have returned to their old play book of divide and conquer. Now it's time to dredge up the supposed pay inequality between men and women. It turns out, however, the White House pays its female staffers 12 percent less than the male staffers. Can you say 'hypocrisy?'"

Pennsylvania Stabbings

"With the stabbings at the school in Pennsylvania, will we now have background checks on knife purchases?"

"I just saw on breaking news on TV that there was a multiple stabbing at a school in Pennsylvania. Twenty kids were stabbed, fortunately none of them are dead. I just wonder, are the people now that are anti-gun also going to be anti-knife? Let's see if we have an outrage about knives now or if it's just going to be about guns because that's the primary agenda, it seems like, for the current administration. Knives are just as dangerous as guns. Fortunately none of those kids are dead but they very well could have been. Just waiting to see if there's an outrage over the stabbing in Pennsylvania or if it's swept under the carpet..."

Holmes Defense

"I would like to know who is paying for the Aurora shooter's defense and the attorneys' constant late date changes of venue requests, among other things, and how much it's costing us as taxpayers to pay them to defend the shooter."
